“Decision Making” w/ Vidya Patel

Chai with Rai

This is going to be a two-parted episode BECAUSE I just had to dive into this brilliant human's mind.

Got to speak with the incredible Choreographer, Movement artist and wonderful human that is Vidya Patel. From connecting on Gujarati sayings to discussing decoding Classical Indian dance, it's access, Uday Shankar and so much more! This is a jam packed one.

In the episode we discuss:

• Creation exploration? What is it you look for? The room to feel like ?What does the world of your creativity feel and sound like ?
• Do you separate the lineage/ history of what you have been taught of all artistic vocabulary such as kathak and chow when facilitating and how you manoeuvre that if so?
• The balance of artistic expression and storytelling you have?
• What inspires you/ drives you to create still?
• How do you balance the room when comissioned with everything and what have you found a tip on in getting consistent work?
• What you have learnt about yourself through the craft and about your craft through the years?
